Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.

Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.

So for accounts payable, we don't try


to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69

minutes of video about time value of


money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.

Then you make periodic interest and


principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and

then you pay back at maturity.


>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.

Then on December 31st,


we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,

you forgot to record the interest payable!


>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for

500 because we're paying $500 cash.


December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,

credit cash 10,000.


Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.

Let me show you.


So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which

is 5%, for three periods, three years.


The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.

So, how much principal are we paying?


It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.

That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.


And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.

So there's a rational explanation why


interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we

borrow from the bank for


the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.

We're going to debit interest expense for


500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.

And at this point,


the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.

So, the price or proceeds of the bond


is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.

And then the number of periods


to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran

theme song sort of redeemed it.


In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market

figure out the present value and


then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.

We have to do the present value of


the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.

So we bring up our function, PV.


We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.

So hopefully, it made a lot more sense


when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.

'Kay, so we're debiting interest


expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,

credit cash for $10,000 each.


>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.

And these are pretty much most of the


liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.

And then you may make adjustments based


on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.

So we're going to talk


first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,

to pay the company the present value


of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.

So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,


KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so

when we first borrow from the bank.


And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for

the two periodic interest payments, so


the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.

To get rid of the notes payable liability,


we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?

Wow, you are old.


>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so

we use the annual interest rate of 5% for


the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,

December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but

this time, the interest component is last.


It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal

in one lump sum at the end, we're paying


back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,

you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all


of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,

KP is receiving cash from the bank, so


we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.

We're going to debit interest expense


to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a

little bit at the beginning of the video,


these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or

yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.


That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,

we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.

>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?


[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or

future value of 10,000.


We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.

Or, if you're using Excel,


you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.

But then, as I said, you could also do


present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for

when the bond is issued on January 1,


2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.

Okay, so we're paying off the principal,


so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.

Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try

to figure out the present value of


paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of

money, I sure hope we will use


those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and

principal payments over the loan period


such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.

>> My favorite type of debt


are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,

we're going to pay $500 of interest.


The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!

>> Finally a legitimate question.


So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.

December 31, 2011,


we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.

Either one is okay just as long as


your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.

So here's where we get the payment number.


It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.

The present value is 10,000.


There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?

It's the difference between 3,672 and


500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.

And then we get to December 31, 2012,


which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why

interest is highest at the beginning and


then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for

the mortgage January 1st,


we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for

500 to represent the cost of


the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,

the mortgage is fully paid off, so


there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond

is what the company receives when they


issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods

to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.

In case [LAUGH] you're wondering


what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and

then are willing to give KP $10,000


of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of

the payment, so here we're looking for


the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.

We have a rate of 2.5% for


six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense

when you saw it the second time.


So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest

expense for 250 because this is


a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.

>> This seems very easy.


I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the

liabilities that we have been seeing so


far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based

on inter, interim cash payments, or


premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk

first about bank loans.


This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value

of the coupons and the principal.


So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,

KP incorporated is going to borrow


$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.

And I'm going to throw


up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so

the interest payment on December 31,


2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,

we debit notes payable 10,000,


so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.

>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank


just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for

the rate, three years, n is 3,


we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,

2010, the amount of principal


that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.

It's calculated as the beginning


balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying

back some principal every period so that


by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all

of your first payment goes to interest.


You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so

we debit cash 10,000.


And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense

to recognize the interest cost in


the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,

these are coupon bonds,


which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.

That's the rate r that we're going


to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,

20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.


And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?

[LAUGH] Let's move on.


Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.

We use an interest rate of 0.25,


which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,

you can just put in all of the elements.


Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do

present value where you put in the rate,


the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,

2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,

so we debit bonds payable to


reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.

Now that we have the basics of time value


of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of

paying something off two months later.


But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use

those calculations in this video.


Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period

such that by the end of the loan period,


you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt

are loans from my parents.


I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.

The $500 is 5% of 10,000.


We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.

So, remember we don't book


interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,

we make the same journal entry.


We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as

your debits equal your credits.


Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.

It's a present value calculation and


specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.

There's no future value and


it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and

500 of interest, which means


we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,

which is the end of the mortgage.


So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and

then goes down over time.


Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,

we get $10,000 cash coming in.


And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of

the interest during the year,


which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so

there are no more journal entries.


So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they

issue the bond to the public.


That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.

And so, we're going to go through


examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering

what we're talking about,


these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000

of proceeds to get that bond.


Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for

the present value.


We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for

six months, six semiannual periods.


We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.

So now let's go ahead and


do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is

a cost of interest, cost of doing


business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.

I thought bonds was going to be difficult,


so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so

far in the course, so


things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or

premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.

This is a kind of liability where you


borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.

So that's how much cash the company


raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow

$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.


The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw

up the pause sign and


see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,

2010 and December 31, 2011.


So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,

so that goes to zero.


We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank

just make the payment a nice round


number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,

we don't know the payment.


We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal

that we owe is $10,000.


Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning

balance times 5%, so


it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that

by the time we get to the end of the loan,


we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.

You pay a little bit down in principal.


As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.

And we credit mortgage payable,


a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in

the income statement this period,


341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,

which means that they're going to


require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going

to use to calculate present values.


That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.

And the bond price is going to


be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.

Okay, so the example we're going to


go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,

which is half of 5%.


The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.

Face value, 10,000.


Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,

the number of periods, and put in


both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.

So on this date we're receiving


cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to

reduce the liability by 10,000,


so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value

of money under our belt, we're going to


apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.

But we talk about long-term liabilities,


so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.

Those were 69 minutes of my life


that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,

you've fully paid back the principal.


There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.

I borrow principal, make no interest


payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.

We pay the same amount on December 31,


2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book

interest payable until we've


incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.

We debit interest expense and


we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.

Now we're going to look at accounting for


a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and

specifically it's an present


value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and

it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.


It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means

we're paying 3,172 of principal.


So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.

So coming in, the balance is 3,497.


The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.

Interest is always based on the balance


of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.

And then we're going to make


our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,

which needs to go in the income statement.


And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.

So that's what what goes on with


the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.

That's going to be the same as


the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through

examples and see how all of this works.


But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,

these are James Bond movies.


You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.

Where do they get that from?


Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.

We set the future value equal to zero.


We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.

We're not going to do anything with


the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and

do the journal entries.


So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing

business, goes onto the income statement.


And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,

so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so

things like accounts payable and interest


payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,

which we'll talk about later, but


you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you

borrow some principal up front, so


maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company

raises from issuing the bond.


Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.

The bank changes the firm


5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and

see if you can do the journal entry for


first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.

So, I'll put up the pause sign and


you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.

We debit interest expense because we had


another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round

number like $3,700?


>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.

We can use Excel or a calculator or


PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.

Then we're going to make


a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so

it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.


Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,

we've paid back all the principal


in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.

As you pay more and


more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,

a liability for what we owe back the bank.


Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,

341, and put a cash for 3,672.


Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to

require semiannual coupon payments.


So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.

That's what rate the, the investors are


willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to

be equal to the present value of


that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to

go through is on January 1st, 2010,


KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.

The number of periods is six.


A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.

Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in

both the payment and the face value.


And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving

cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.


We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,

so it makes the liability zero.


We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to

apply those to accounting for


various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,

so liabilities due beyond one year, now


we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life

that I will never get back again.


>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.

There's not necessarily that lump


sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest

payments, and make no principal payments.


Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,

2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've

incurred interest expense


without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and

we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for

a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present

value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.

It shows us the negative.


If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.

So if we're paying that much principal,


that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.

The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or


175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance

of principal at that point in time.


And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make

our three payments of 3,672,


which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.

And then we credit cash for


the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with

the accounting firm mortgage where you


have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as

the present value in a time value of


money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.

But the key thing to remember is


that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.

You can't teach bond accounting


without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?

Well, it's, they do a present value


calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.

We use the same semiannual interest rate,


number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with

the tenit, payment at this point and


we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.

So as we have done before, I've laid out


all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.

And then we credit cash for


250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.

>> Yeah, if only all bonds were


this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest

payable, taxes payable, wages payable.


Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but

you don't mark at the fair


value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so

maybe you borrow a $1,000.


You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.

Investors can then sell the bond


to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm

5% interest per year.


So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for

first borrowing from the bank.


Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and

you can try to think of what


those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had

another $500 of interest expense for


the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?

>> I'm sure the bank would be happy


to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or

PV table to try to solve it.


The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make

a payment on that day of 3,672.


Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.

Since we're paying a little bit less


interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal

in addition to annual interest.


>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and

more principal down over time,


the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.

Then at the end of 2010, December 31,


we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.

Last payment, 12/31/2012.


Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.

So there's going to be a payment of


cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are

willing to lend money to the company at.


We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of

that face value amount or


future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,

KP Incorporated issues a three-year


5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.

A three-year bond, but we double


the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.

Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,


calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.

And what Excel will do is value them for


you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.

We credit bonds payable,


liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.

We do one more coupon payment


of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for

various kinds of long-term liabilities,


like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now

we're going to book those liabilities at


the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.

>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time


value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump

sum payment of principal at the end.


And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.

Will we cover the accounting for


these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.

It's the same amount because at


that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense

without paying any cash.


So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.

The last journal entry that we need to


do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.

So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.

But in this case,


we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.

If you want to see it as positive,


you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,

that means that after the payment,


the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or

175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.

And what we're doing in each payment


is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,

which are split into interest and


principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for

the amount of the payment 3,672.


So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you

have this situation of equal payments and


the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of

money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is

that bonds have semiannual payments,


which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting

without having James Bond jokes.


Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value

calculation to get the bond price.


So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,

number of semiannual periods.


The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and

we have a $10,000 face value.


So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out

all of the payments across the timeline.


We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for

250 to represent the cash that pay for


the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were

this straightforward and easy.


Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.

Those are all very short-term liabilities.


We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair

value every period.


So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.

You make periodic interest


payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond

to other people freely until


the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.

So it's always helpful to look at


a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.

Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what

those journal entries would be.


'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for

the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy

to give you a nice, round number as


a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.

The payment comes up to be 3,672.


Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.

Now, that payment is going


towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less

interest with the same payment,


we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.

>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,

the interest portion of the payment drops,


the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,

we have to make our payment.


So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.

Why don't you give it a shot?


Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of

cash every six months plus payment of


the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.

We're going to have the coupon rate,


which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or

future value amount plus the present value


of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year

5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.


Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double

the number periods to get semiannual.


And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,

calculate the present value and


you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for

you together and


come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,

liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment

of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,

like bank debt, mortgages, leases,


and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at

the present value of future cash payments.


After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time

value of money calculations, not for


the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.

And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.


Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for

these type of loans?


>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at

that point, we still owe $10,000.


We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.

So there's no interest payable on the day


that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to

do is when we repay the principal and


pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,

2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000


from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,

we actually know the present value.


What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,

you put that in there, and we get 3,672.


So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,

the ending balance in our principal,


our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.

So we're making the same payment of 3,672,


which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment

is we're not only paying interest, but


we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and

principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.

So let's try it again with the 2011


payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and

the payments are partially for


interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.

The face value or par value is the amount


that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,

which means we need to do


semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.

Here's another one.


What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.

So remember we have to double


the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.

The payment is 250.


That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.

So that give us 8,623,


if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.

We get 10,000 when we issue


the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for

the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.

Unfortunately, they're not.


And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.

We have to repay somebody


within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.

So as a result, when you look at


liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest

payments on that $1,000 and


then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until

the maturity of the bond.


And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at

a timeline of payments to try to


figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.

So, on January 1st,


2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.

'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.

And then we credit cash for 10,500,


which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as

a payment, but if they would be


rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.

Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so


let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going

towards principal and interest.


So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,

we pay off more principal.


That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,

why does the interest change each year?


And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,

the principal portion increases.


Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.

So I'm going to throw up


the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?

Again, same entry, different numbers.


Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of

the face value of the bond at maturity,


so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,

which is stated in the bond agreement, and


that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value

of the stream of payments, that annuity.


>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.

Investors price the bond using


an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.

And then there's no payment because


we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and

you will also get 10,000.


So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and

come up with the same


bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.

Now let's look at the journal entry for


the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so

we debit interest expense for 250,


and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,

and bonds, a lot of bonds.


Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.

After we record those long-term


liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for

the first few minutes of the video, but


toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.

Corporate bonds are where a company


promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?

>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.

We pay 5% interest on that.


And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day

that we get the proceeds of this loan


because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and

pay that last interest


payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000

from a bank on a three-year mortgage.


The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.

What's missing is the payment because


we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.

So, coming back into the PowerPoint,


what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,

our mortgage payable,


will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,

which means that the principal


portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but

we're paying down principal.


As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.

So let me throw up the pas,


the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011

payment and here is the pause sign.


So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for

interest and partially for


principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount

that the bond is going to pay at maturity.


That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do

semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.

What is the favorite James Bond


movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double

the number of periods and


divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.

That's the $10,000 face value


times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,

if you'll allow me to round.


And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue

the bond on January 1st, 2010.


Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.

So we're going to do that for those


five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.

And in the next video, we will crank


up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody

within a couple of months.


Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at

liabilities on a balance sheet,


what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and

then you repay the $1,000


principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.

And there's a special case


called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to

figure out when we're


going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,

2010, we're going to receive cash,


$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so

we are debiting interest expense for


500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,

which is the total cash for paying.


Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be

rounding up, then they're cheating you.


They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so

let me pop out to Excel and


show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.

So first, you calculate the interest


portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.

That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,


so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?

And why is it highest in the first year?


No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.

Now that we've laid out the amortization


schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up

the pause sign again and


try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.

Debit mortgage payable to reduce


the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,

so at the end of its time period.


So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and

that's going to determine


the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.

>> But this sounds like it is going


to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using

an effective market interest rate of 5%,


which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because

we're just doing a face val,


face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.

So let me pop out to Excel and


show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same

bond price of 10,000.


>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for

the periodic coupon payments and


those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,

and then credit cash for the 10,250.


And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.

Let's get started.


So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term

liabilities, in some cases,


we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but

toward the end, you'll be seeing them.


Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company

promises to pay periodic cash flows,


which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.

We won't be working on accounting for


parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.

And then at maturity, December 31,


2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan

because we can in theory just turn around,


pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest

payment on December 31, 2012.


So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.

The bank charges KP 5% interest


per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because

we know the present value's $10,000.


That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,

what it's always helpful to look at


when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,

will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal

portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.

As we pay down principal,


then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,

the pause sign and


have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.

So it's going to be the same entry,


different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for

principal so that by the end of the


payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.

That's also going to be represented as the


future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.

So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond

movie of all time for accountants?


It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and

divide the interest rate by 2.


So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value

times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,


so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.

And then we do the same thing for


the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.

Every six months,


we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those

five intermediate six-months periods.


Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank

up the difficulty when we look at


discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.

Those liabilities are booked


at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,

what you're oftentimes seeing


is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000

principal at the end of the loan.


A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case

called the zero-coupon bond,


where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're

going to get cash and


pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,

$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.


And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for

500 because that's a cost of


having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.

Now, you could have also split


this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.

They're charging you too much.


This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and

show you how to do that.


So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest

portion of the payment.


You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,

so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?

No wonder everyone hates banks!


>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization

schedule, we're going to go through and


do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and

try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.


So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce

the principal balance by 3,497.


Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.

So, the terminology that we're going to


use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine

the coupon payment,


which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going

to be the most boring Bond video


since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,

which means that KP is going to receive


proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,

face value future value.


So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and

show you all these calculations.


Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.

>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.


Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and

those five payments in the middle


are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.

And, of course, you could have


also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.

So we're going to start our look


at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,

we continue to mark them to fair value.


But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.

Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,

which we're going to call coupons,


plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for

parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,

2012, we pay the last interest payment


plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,

pay it back immediately and


not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.

So I'll put up the pause sign and


try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest

per year on the mortgage.


The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.

That's how much we're getting now.


There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at

when accounting for a mortgage is


what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,

which is 10,000 minus 3,172.


Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.

3,672 minus 175 and viola,


that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,

then the interest charge on that


principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and

have you try to do the journal


entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,

different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the

payment stream, you've paid off the loan.


Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the

future value when we do time value money


calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double

the number of periods and


divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?

It's this one, debit no.


>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.

So the present value of


the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,

so that's where we get 250 from.


If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for

the coupon payment.


So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,

we pay a 250 coupon payment.


The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.

Then the last entry we're going to


look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at

discount bonds, premium bonds and


retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked

at their nominal value.


In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing

is a mix of fair values and


then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.

A mortgage will be something where,


again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,

where the coupon payment is zero.


So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and

pay cash and


that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.

And we want to credit a liability for


what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of

having the loan outstanding.


That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split

this into two journal entries.


Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.

This 3,672 is not an arbitrary


number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.

So going into Excel,


we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.

You take the beginning balance, which is


10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.

And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!

>> Now, now, now,


I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and

do the journal entries so


we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.

So here, we're going to reduce the


principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.

Debit interest expense to recognize


the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to

use with bonds are the following and


what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,

which is the payment in our


present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video

since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive

proceeds from the bond of $10,000.


So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.

So you come up with


a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.

Okay, so to price the bond,


there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.

Have we seen something like this before?


>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle

are all identical journey entries, so


just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have

also split this into two entries,


debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look

at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.

But in most cases that we'll talk about,


they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.

The liabilities that we're


going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,

plus a lump sum at maturity,


which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.

Those actually sound more like donated


capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment

plus the principal that we owe.


So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and

not owe any interest.


So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and

try to do the journal entry that


we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.

The required payment is $3,672 per year.


>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.

There's no future value.


There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is

what's called an amortization schedule,


which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.

Then at the end of 2011,


the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,

that's exactly how much principal we owe.


So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that

principal is going to be lower.


This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal

entry on January 1, 2010,


which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.

So on December 31, we're going to


debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.

Now we're going to look at bonds payable,


which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money

calculations and you can easily remember


because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and

divide the rates by two when we


do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.

>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if


you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of

the face value part,


the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.

If you use Excel, calculator or


PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.

So, present value, we've got 0.025,


six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.

The end, we make the last coupon


payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to

look at is December 31, 2012,


when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and

retirement before maturity.


I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.

In other words, how much money you owe.


We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and

then these amortized costs,


which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,

again, you borrow principal, so


you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.

So there's no periodic cash flows, but


you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and

that'll help guide the journal entries.


So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for

what we owe the bank, so


we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.

That goes on the income


statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.

Debit interest expense 500,


credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary

number pulled out of thin air, but


it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,

we hit the little Function button.


We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is

10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.


And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,

since we're paying back that principal,


the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,

I used to work for a bank.


Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so

we can take our amortization schedule and


represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the

principal balance in mortgage payable by


3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize

the cost of the interest on


the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and

what I'm going to do in parentheses


is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our

present value calculations,


which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.

>> I actually thought A View


to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.

So, basically KP specifies all the terms


of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with

a present value of 8,623.


And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,

there are two components.


There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?

>> Yes, this is the exact example I


used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so

just try to do one of those and


it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,

debit interest expense,


credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by

contrasting them to current liabilities.


Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,

they're recorded at something called


amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're

going to focus on for


most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,

which we are going to call the principal.


What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated

capital than actual liabilities.


First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.

So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.

So, interest payable and interest expense


are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that

we do on December 31, 2012.


' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.

>> Do you know how long it takes to


write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.

There's no money that's going to


change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,

which tracks the principal and


interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,

the beginning balance is what we


ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.

So after we make the last payment,


the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.

This is a natural feature of a mortgage.


If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,

which is when that mortgage is issued to


the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to

debit mortgage payable again for


the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,

which is a very common way that companies


raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember

because face value, future value, both FV.


The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we

do present value calculations.


So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if

you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.


I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,

the 10,000, you calculate looking for


present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or

PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.


So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,

six semiannual periods,


$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon

payment plus the principal.


So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,

when we have to repay at maturity.


So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.

I'll see you then.


>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.

We don't try to figure


out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,

which are like old historical costs.


>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so

you borrow, I guess we should


make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but

you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.


So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.

So, on January 1st, 2010,


we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so

we credit notes payable $10,000.


>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income

statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,

credit cash 500, and


then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but

it actually represents a payment


based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.

We look for the payment function, PMT.


We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.

And so, we're owe in terms of interest for


the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,

the balance in the mortgage principal


at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.

Some of my best friends are bankers.


Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and

represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by

3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on

the income statement, 175, and


then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses

is note how they would map


into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,

which equals the face value of


the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View

to a Kill was much worse than


GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms

of the bond, puts it out to the market.


The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.

And I'll bring this up in Excel in


a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.

There's the present value of


the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I

used at the end of the Time Value of


Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and

it'll apply to all of them.


So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,

credit cash of 250 each.


Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.

Current liabilities are anything due


within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called

amortized cost, which is you book


the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for

most of the next two videos


are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.

What the company does is offer these to


the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.

First, let's look at how we do


the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,

I want to do the journal entry for


issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense

are only going to accrue over time.


Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.

' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to

write $3,672 in words on a check?


>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to

change hands at the end.


It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and

interest payments over time.


So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we

ended with last time, 6,828.


We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,

the principal balance is 0.


So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.

If you ever buy a house


with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to

the company, so when KP borrows the money.


So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for

the reduction in principal,


which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies

raise money to finance their operations.


So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.

The market interest rate or


effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.

So, if it was a ten-year bond


with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.

I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for

present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.

So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,


to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,

$250 payment, no future value,


1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.

So let me throw up the pause sign and


try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.

So let me one last time throw up the pause


sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.

>> See you next video!


Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure

out the present value.


So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.

>> Now that you have made us watch 69


minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should

make it a million dollars.


Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.

So you borrow now and


then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,

we're going to receive $10,000 cash.


Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.

>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.

Credit cash for


500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and

then debit notes payable 10,000,


credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment

based on an annuity calculation.


Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.

We put in the annual interest rate,which


is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for

the first year is $500.


So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal

at the end of the year is 3,497.


That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.

Let's go easy on them.


So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.

So, on the day that we


borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so

reduce the liability with a debit.


We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and

then credit cash for the 3,672.


And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map

into our present value calculations.


So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of

the bond times the coupon rate.


And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than

GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran


theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.

The investors in the market


figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in

a little bit to show you all of this.


We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of

the $10,000 face value of the bond.


So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of

Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.

So here is the pause sign.


'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.

Debit bonds payable,


credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due

within one year, less than one year.


And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book

the liability initially at present value.


And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos

are different types of debt.


So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to

the public and then investors offer the,


to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do

the accounting for the bank loan.


So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for

issuing the debt, so


when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.

Next, we need to do the journal entry for


the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so

we're paying off our notes payable.


To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?

>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.

It's an annual payment, so


we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.

So at the end of that first year,


December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.

We make the same payment of 3,672, but


this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.

So, instead of paying back the principal


in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house

with a 30-year mortgage,


you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.

So our receiving cash,


KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,

which is now 3,331.


We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.

So, bonds payable, as we talked about a


little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or

effective interest rate or


yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond

with a 10% interest rate,


we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and

tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.


>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.

We'll have a face value or


future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,

to get the price of 10,000.


Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,

1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.


But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and

try to do the journal entry for


when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause

sign and try to do this journal entry.


Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!

Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.


Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.

So for accounts payable, we don't try


to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69

minutes of video about time value of


money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.

Then you make periodic interest and


principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and

then you pay back at maturity.


>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.

Then on December 31st,


we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,

you forgot to record the interest payable!


>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for

500 because we're paying $500 cash.


December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,

credit cash 10,000.


Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.

Let me show you.


So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which

is 5%, for three periods, three years.


The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.

So, how much principal are we paying?


It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.

That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.


And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.

So there's a rational explanation why


interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we

borrow from the bank for


the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.

We're going to debit interest expense for


500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.

And at this point,


the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.

So, the price or proceeds of the bond


is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.

And then the number of periods


to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran

theme song sort of redeemed it.


In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market

figure out the present value and


then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.

We have to do the present value of


the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.

So we bring up our function, PV.


We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.

So hopefully, it made a lot more sense


when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.

'Kay, so we're debiting interest


expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,

credit cash for $10,000 each.


>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.

And these are pretty much most of the


liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.

And then you may make adjustments based


on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.

So we're going to talk


first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,

to pay the company the present value


of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.

So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,


KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so

when we first borrow from the bank.


And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for

the two periodic interest payments, so


the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.

To get rid of the notes payable liability,


we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?

Wow, you are old.


>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so

we use the annual interest rate of 5% for


the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,

December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but

this time, the interest component is last.


It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal

in one lump sum at the end, we're paying


back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,

you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all


of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,

KP is receiving cash from the bank, so


we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.

We're going to debit interest expense


to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a

little bit at the beginning of the video,


these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or

yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.


That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,

we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.

>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?


[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or

future value of 10,000.


We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.

Or, if you're using Excel,


you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.

But then, as I said, you could also do


present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for

when the bond is issued on January 1,


2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.

Okay, so we're paying off the principal,


so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.

Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try

to figure out the present value of


paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of

money, I sure hope we will use


those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and

principal payments over the loan period


such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.

>> My favorite type of debt


are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,

we're going to pay $500 of interest.


The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!

>> Finally a legitimate question.


So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.

December 31, 2011,


we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.

Either one is okay just as long as


your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.

So here's where we get the payment number.


It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.

The present value is 10,000.


There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?

It's the difference between 3,672 and


500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.

And then we get to December 31, 2012,


which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why

interest is highest at the beginning and


then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for

the mortgage January 1st,


we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for

500 to represent the cost of


the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,

the mortgage is fully paid off, so


there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond

is what the company receives when they


issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods

to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.

In case [LAUGH] you're wondering


what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and

then are willing to give KP $10,000


of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of

the payment, so here we're looking for


the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.

We have a rate of 2.5% for


six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense

when you saw it the second time.


So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest

expense for 250 because this is


a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.

>> This seems very easy.


I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the

liabilities that we have been seeing so


far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based

on inter, interim cash payments, or


premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk

first about bank loans.


This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value

of the coupons and the principal.


So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,

KP incorporated is going to borrow


$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.

And I'm going to throw


up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so

the interest payment on December 31,


2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,

we debit notes payable 10,000,


so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.

>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank


just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for

the rate, three years, n is 3,


we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,

2010, the amount of principal


that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.

It's calculated as the beginning


balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying

back some principal every period so that


by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all

of your first payment goes to interest.


You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so

we debit cash 10,000.


And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense

to recognize the interest cost in


the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,

these are coupon bonds,


which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.

That's the rate r that we're going


to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,

20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.


And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?

[LAUGH] Let's move on.


Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.

We use an interest rate of 0.25,


which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,

you can just put in all of the elements.


Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do

present value where you put in the rate,


the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,

2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,

so we debit bonds payable to


reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.

Now that we have the basics of time value


of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of

paying something off two months later.


But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use

those calculations in this video.


Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period

such that by the end of the loan period,


you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt

are loans from my parents.


I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.

The $500 is 5% of 10,000.


We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.

So, remember we don't book


interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,

we make the same journal entry.


We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as

your debits equal your credits.


Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.

It's a present value calculation and


specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.

There's no future value and


it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and

500 of interest, which means


we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,

which is the end of the mortgage.


So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and

then goes down over time.


Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,

we get $10,000 cash coming in.


And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of

the interest during the year,


which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so

there are no more journal entries.


So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they

issue the bond to the public.


That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.

And so, we're going to go through


examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering

what we're talking about,


these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000

of proceeds to get that bond.


Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for

the present value.


We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for

six months, six semiannual periods.


We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.

So now let's go ahead and


do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is

a cost of interest, cost of doing


business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.

I thought bonds was going to be difficult,


so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so

far in the course, so


things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or

premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.

This is a kind of liability where you


borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.

So that's how much cash the company


raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow

$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.


The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw

up the pause sign and


see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,

2010 and December 31, 2011.


So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,

so that goes to zero.


We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank

just make the payment a nice round


number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,

we don't know the payment.


We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal

that we owe is $10,000.


Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning

balance times 5%, so


it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that

by the time we get to the end of the loan,


we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.

You pay a little bit down in principal.


As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.

And we credit mortgage payable,


a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in

the income statement this period,


341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,

which means that they're going to


require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going

to use to calculate present values.


That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.

And the bond price is going to


be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.

Okay, so the example we're going to


go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,

which is half of 5%.


The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.

Face value, 10,000.


Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,

the number of periods, and put in


both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.

So on this date we're receiving


cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to

reduce the liability by 10,000,


so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value

of money under our belt, we're going to


apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.

But we talk about long-term liabilities,


so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.

Those were 69 minutes of my life


that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,

you've fully paid back the principal.


There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.

I borrow principal, make no interest


payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.

We pay the same amount on December 31,


2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book

interest payable until we've


incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.

We debit interest expense and


we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.

Now we're going to look at accounting for


a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and

specifically it's an present


value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and

it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.


It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means

we're paying 3,172 of principal.


So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.

So coming in, the balance is 3,497.


The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.

Interest is always based on the balance


of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.

And then we're going to make


our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,

which needs to go in the income statement.


And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.

So that's what what goes on with


the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.

That's going to be the same as


the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through

examples and see how all of this works.


But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,

these are James Bond movies.


You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.

Where do they get that from?


Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.

We set the future value equal to zero.


We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.

We're not going to do anything with


the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and

do the journal entries.


So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing

business, goes onto the income statement.


And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,

so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so

things like accounts payable and interest


payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,

which we'll talk about later, but


you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you

borrow some principal up front, so


maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company

raises from issuing the bond.


Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.

The bank changes the firm


5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and

see if you can do the journal entry for


first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.

So, I'll put up the pause sign and


you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.

We debit interest expense because we had


another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round

number like $3,700?


>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.

We can use Excel or a calculator or


PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.

Then we're going to make


a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so

it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.


Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,

we've paid back all the principal


in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.

As you pay more and


more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,

a liability for what we owe back the bank.


Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,

341, and put a cash for 3,672.


Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to

require semiannual coupon payments.


So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.

That's what rate the, the investors are


willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to

be equal to the present value of


that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to

go through is on January 1st, 2010,


KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.

The number of periods is six.


A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.

Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in

both the payment and the face value.


And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving

cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.


We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,

so it makes the liability zero.


We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to

apply those to accounting for


various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,

so liabilities due beyond one year, now


we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life

that I will never get back again.


>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.

There's not necessarily that lump


sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest

payments, and make no principal payments.


Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,

2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've

incurred interest expense


without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and

we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for

a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present

value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.

It shows us the negative.


If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.

So if we're paying that much principal,


that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.

The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or


175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance

of principal at that point in time.


And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make

our three payments of 3,672,


which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.

And then we credit cash for


the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with

the accounting firm mortgage where you


have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as

the present value in a time value of


money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.

But the key thing to remember is


that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.

You can't teach bond accounting


without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?

Well, it's, they do a present value


calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.

We use the same semiannual interest rate,


number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with

the tenit, payment at this point and


we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.

So as we have done before, I've laid out


all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.

And then we credit cash for


250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.

>> Yeah, if only all bonds were


this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest

payable, taxes payable, wages payable.


Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but

you don't mark at the fair


value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so

maybe you borrow a $1,000.


You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.

Investors can then sell the bond


to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm

5% interest per year.


So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for

first borrowing from the bank.


Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and

you can try to think of what


those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had

another $500 of interest expense for


the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?

>> I'm sure the bank would be happy


to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or

PV table to try to solve it.


The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make

a payment on that day of 3,672.


Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.

Since we're paying a little bit less


interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal

in addition to annual interest.


>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and

more principal down over time,


the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.

Then at the end of 2010, December 31,


we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.

Last payment, 12/31/2012.


Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.

So there's going to be a payment of


cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are

willing to lend money to the company at.


We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of

that face value amount or


future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,

KP Incorporated issues a three-year


5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.

A three-year bond, but we double


the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.

Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,


calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.

And what Excel will do is value them for


you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.

We credit bonds payable,


liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.

We do one more coupon payment


of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for

various kinds of long-term liabilities,


like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now

we're going to book those liabilities at


the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.

>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time


value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump

sum payment of principal at the end.


And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.

Will we cover the accounting for


these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.

It's the same amount because at


that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense

without paying any cash.


So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.

The last journal entry that we need to


do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.

So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.

But in this case,


we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.

If you want to see it as positive,


you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,

that means that after the payment,


the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or

175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.

And what we're doing in each payment


is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,

which are split into interest and


principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for

the amount of the payment 3,672.


So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you

have this situation of equal payments and


the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of

money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is

that bonds have semiannual payments,


which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting

without having James Bond jokes.


Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value

calculation to get the bond price.


So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,

number of semiannual periods.


The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and

we have a $10,000 face value.


So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out

all of the payments across the timeline.


We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for

250 to represent the cash that pay for


the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were

this straightforward and easy.


Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.

Those are all very short-term liabilities.


We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair

value every period.


So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.

You make periodic interest


payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond

to other people freely until


the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.

So it's always helpful to look at


a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.

Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what

those journal entries would be.


'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for

the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy

to give you a nice, round number as


a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.

The payment comes up to be 3,672.


Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.

Now, that payment is going


towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less

interest with the same payment,


we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.

>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,

the interest portion of the payment drops,


the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,

we have to make our payment.


So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.

Why don't you give it a shot?


Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of

cash every six months plus payment of


the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.

We're going to have the coupon rate,


which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or

future value amount plus the present value


of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year

5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.


Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double

the number periods to get semiannual.


And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,

calculate the present value and


you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for

you together and


come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,

liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment

of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,

like bank debt, mortgages, leases,


and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at

the present value of future cash payments.


After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time

value of money calculations, not for


the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.

And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.


Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for

these type of loans?


>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at

that point, we still owe $10,000.


We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.

So there's no interest payable on the day


that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to

do is when we repay the principal and


pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,

2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000


from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,

we actually know the present value.


What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,

you put that in there, and we get 3,672.


So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,

the ending balance in our principal,


our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.

So we're making the same payment of 3,672,


which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment

is we're not only paying interest, but


we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and

principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.

So let's try it again with the 2011


payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and

the payments are partially for


interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.

The face value or par value is the amount


that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,

which means we need to do


semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.

Here's another one.


What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.

So remember we have to double


the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.

The payment is 250.


That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.

So that give us 8,623,


if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.

We get 10,000 when we issue


the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for

the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.

Unfortunately, they're not.


And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.

We have to repay somebody


within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.

So as a result, when you look at


liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest

payments on that $1,000 and


then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until

the maturity of the bond.


And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at

a timeline of payments to try to


figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.

So, on January 1st,


2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.

'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.

And then we credit cash for 10,500,


which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as

a payment, but if they would be


rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.

Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so


let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going

towards principal and interest.


So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,

we pay off more principal.


That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,

why does the interest change each year?


And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,

the principal portion increases.


Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.

So I'm going to throw up


the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?

Again, same entry, different numbers.


Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of

the face value of the bond at maturity,


so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,

which is stated in the bond agreement, and


that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value

of the stream of payments, that annuity.


>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.

Investors price the bond using


an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.

And then there's no payment because


we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and

you will also get 10,000.


So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and

come up with the same


bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.

Now let's look at the journal entry for


the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so

we debit interest expense for 250,


and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,

and bonds, a lot of bonds.


Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.

After we record those long-term


liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for

the first few minutes of the video, but


toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.

Corporate bonds are where a company


promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?

>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.

We pay 5% interest on that.


And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day

that we get the proceeds of this loan


because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and

pay that last interest


payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000

from a bank on a three-year mortgage.


The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.

What's missing is the payment because


we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.

So, coming back into the PowerPoint,


what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,

our mortgage payable,


will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,

which means that the principal


portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but

we're paying down principal.


As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.

So let me throw up the pas,


the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011

payment and here is the pause sign.


So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for

interest and partially for


principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount

that the bond is going to pay at maturity.


That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do

semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.

What is the favorite James Bond


movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double

the number of periods and


divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.

That's the $10,000 face value


times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,

if you'll allow me to round.


And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue

the bond on January 1st, 2010.


Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.

So we're going to do that for those


five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.

And in the next video, we will crank


up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody

within a couple of months.


Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at

liabilities on a balance sheet,


what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and

then you repay the $1,000


principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.

And there's a special case


called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to

figure out when we're


going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,

2010, we're going to receive cash,


$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so

we are debiting interest expense for


500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,

which is the total cash for paying.


Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be

rounding up, then they're cheating you.


They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so

let me pop out to Excel and


show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.

So first, you calculate the interest


portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.

That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,


so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?

And why is it highest in the first year?


No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.

Now that we've laid out the amortization


schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up

the pause sign again and


try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.

Debit mortgage payable to reduce


the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,

so at the end of its time period.


So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and

that's going to determine


the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.

>> But this sounds like it is going


to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using

an effective market interest rate of 5%,


which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because

we're just doing a face val,


face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.

So let me pop out to Excel and


show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same

bond price of 10,000.


>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for

the periodic coupon payments and


those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,

and then credit cash for the 10,250.


And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.

Let's get started.


So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term

liabilities, in some cases,


we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but

toward the end, you'll be seeing them.


Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company

promises to pay periodic cash flows,


which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.

We won't be working on accounting for


parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.

And then at maturity, December 31,


2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan

because we can in theory just turn around,


pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest

payment on December 31, 2012.


So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.

The bank charges KP 5% interest


per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because

we know the present value's $10,000.


That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,

what it's always helpful to look at


when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,

will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal

portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.

As we pay down principal,


then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,

the pause sign and


have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.

So it's going to be the same entry,


different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for

principal so that by the end of the


payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.

That's also going to be represented as the


future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.

So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond

movie of all time for accountants?


It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and

divide the interest rate by 2.


So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value

times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,


so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.

And then we do the same thing for


the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.

Every six months,


we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those

five intermediate six-months periods.


Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank

up the difficulty when we look at


discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.

Those liabilities are booked


at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,

what you're oftentimes seeing


is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000

principal at the end of the loan.


A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case

called the zero-coupon bond,


where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're

going to get cash and


pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,

$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.


And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for

500 because that's a cost of


having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.

Now, you could have also split


this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.

They're charging you too much.


This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and

show you how to do that.


So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest

portion of the payment.


You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,

so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?

No wonder everyone hates banks!


>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization

schedule, we're going to go through and


do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and

try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.


So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce

the principal balance by 3,497.


Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.

So, the terminology that we're going to


use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine

the coupon payment,


which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going

to be the most boring Bond video


since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,

which means that KP is going to receive


proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,

face value future value.


So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and

show you all these calculations.


Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.

>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.


Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and

those five payments in the middle


are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.

And, of course, you could have


also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.

So we're going to start our look


at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,

we continue to mark them to fair value.


But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.

Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,

which we're going to call coupons,


plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for

parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,

2012, we pay the last interest payment


plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,

pay it back immediately and


not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.

So I'll put up the pause sign and


try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest

per year on the mortgage.


The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.

That's how much we're getting now.


There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at

when accounting for a mortgage is


what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,

which is 10,000 minus 3,172.


Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.

3,672 minus 175 and viola,


that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,

then the interest charge on that


principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and

have you try to do the journal


entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,

different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the

payment stream, you've paid off the loan.


Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the

future value when we do time value money


calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double

the number of periods and


divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?

It's this one, debit no.


>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.

So the present value of


the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,

so that's where we get 250 from.


If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for

the coupon payment.


So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,

we pay a 250 coupon payment.


The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.

Then the last entry we're going to


look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at

discount bonds, premium bonds and


retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked

at their nominal value.


In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing

is a mix of fair values and


then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.

A mortgage will be something where,


again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,

where the coupon payment is zero.


So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and

pay cash and


that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.

And we want to credit a liability for


what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of

having the loan outstanding.


That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split

this into two journal entries.


Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.

This 3,672 is not an arbitrary


number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.

So going into Excel,


we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.

You take the beginning balance, which is


10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.

And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!

>> Now, now, now,


I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and

do the journal entries so


we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.

So here, we're going to reduce the


principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.

Debit interest expense to recognize


the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to

use with bonds are the following and


what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,

which is the payment in our


present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video

since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive

proceeds from the bond of $10,000.


So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.

So you come up with


a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.

Okay, so to price the bond,


there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.

Have we seen something like this before?


>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle

are all identical journey entries, so


just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have

also split this into two entries,


debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look

at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.

But in most cases that we'll talk about,


they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.

The liabilities that we're


going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,

plus a lump sum at maturity,


which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.

Those actually sound more like donated


capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment

plus the principal that we owe.


So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and

not owe any interest.


So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and

try to do the journal entry that


we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.

The required payment is $3,672 per year.


>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.

There's no future value.


There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is

what's called an amortization schedule,


which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.

Then at the end of 2011,


the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,

that's exactly how much principal we owe.


So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that

principal is going to be lower.


This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal

entry on January 1, 2010,


which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.

So on December 31, we're going to


debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.

Now we're going to look at bonds payable,


which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money

calculations and you can easily remember


because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and

divide the rates by two when we


do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.

>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if


you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of

the face value part,


the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.

If you use Excel, calculator or


PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.

So, present value, we've got 0.025,


six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.

The end, we make the last coupon


payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to

look at is December 31, 2012,


when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and

retirement before maturity.


I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.

In other words, how much money you owe.


We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and

then these amortized costs,


which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,

again, you borrow principal, so


you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.

So there's no periodic cash flows, but


you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and

that'll help guide the journal entries.


So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for

what we owe the bank, so


we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.

That goes on the income


statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.

Debit interest expense 500,


credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary

number pulled out of thin air, but


it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,

we hit the little Function button.


We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is

10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.


And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,

since we're paying back that principal,


the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,

I used to work for a bank.


Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so

we can take our amortization schedule and


represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the

principal balance in mortgage payable by


3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize

the cost of the interest on


the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and

what I'm going to do in parentheses


is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our

present value calculations,


which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.

>> I actually thought A View


to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.

So, basically KP specifies all the terms


of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with

a present value of 8,623.


And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,

there are two components.


There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?

>> Yes, this is the exact example I


used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so

just try to do one of those and


it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,

debit interest expense,


credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by

contrasting them to current liabilities.


Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,

they're recorded at something called


amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're

going to focus on for


most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,

which we are going to call the principal.


What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated

capital than actual liabilities.


First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.

So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.

So, interest payable and interest expense


are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that

we do on December 31, 2012.


' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.

>> Do you know how long it takes to


write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.

There's no money that's going to


change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,

which tracks the principal and


interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,

the beginning balance is what we


ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.

So after we make the last payment,


the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.

This is a natural feature of a mortgage.


If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,

which is when that mortgage is issued to


the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to

debit mortgage payable again for


the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,

which is a very common way that companies


raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember

because face value, future value, both FV.


The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we

do present value calculations.


So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if

you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.


I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,

the 10,000, you calculate looking for


present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or

PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.


So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,

six semiannual periods,


$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon

payment plus the principal.


So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,

when we have to repay at maturity.


So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.

I'll see you then.


>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.

We don't try to figure


out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,

which are like old historical costs.


>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so

you borrow, I guess we should


make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but

you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.


So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.

So, on January 1st, 2010,


we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so

we credit notes payable $10,000.


>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income

statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,

credit cash 500, and


then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but

it actually represents a payment


based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.

We look for the payment function, PMT.


We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.

And so, we're owe in terms of interest for


the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,

the balance in the mortgage principal


at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.

Some of my best friends are bankers.


Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and

represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by

3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on

the income statement, 175, and


then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses

is note how they would map


into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,

which equals the face value of


the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View

to a Kill was much worse than


GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms

of the bond, puts it out to the market.


The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.

And I'll bring this up in Excel in


a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.

There's the present value of


the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I

used at the end of the Time Value of


Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and

it'll apply to all of them.


So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,

credit cash of 250 each.


Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.

Current liabilities are anything due


within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called

amortized cost, which is you book


the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for

most of the next two videos


are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.

What the company does is offer these to


the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.

First, let's look at how we do


the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,

I want to do the journal entry for


issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense

are only going to accrue over time.


Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.

' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to

write $3,672 in words on a check?


>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to

change hands at the end.


It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and

interest payments over time.


So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we

ended with last time, 6,828.


We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,

the principal balance is 0.


So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.

If you ever buy a house


with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to

the company, so when KP borrows the money.


So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for

the reduction in principal,


which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies

raise money to finance their operations.


So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.

The market interest rate or


effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.

So, if it was a ten-year bond


with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.

I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for

present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.

So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,


to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,

$250 payment, no future value,


1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.

So let me throw up the pause sign and


try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.

So let me one last time throw up the pause


sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.

>> See you next video!


Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure

out the present value.


So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.

>> Now that you have made us watch 69


minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should

make it a million dollars.


Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.

So you borrow now and


then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,

we're going to receive $10,000 cash.


Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.

>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.

Credit cash for


500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and

then debit notes payable 10,000,


credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment

based on an annuity calculation.


Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.

We put in the annual interest rate,which


is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for

the first year is $500.


So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal

at the end of the year is 3,497.


That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.

Let's go easy on them.


So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.

So, on the day that we


borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so

reduce the liability with a debit.


We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and

then credit cash for the 3,672.


And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map

into our present value calculations.


So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of

the bond times the coupon rate.


And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than

GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran


theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.

The investors in the market


figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in

a little bit to show you all of this.


We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of

the $10,000 face value of the bond.


So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of

Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.

So here is the pause sign.


'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.

Debit bonds payable,


credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due

within one year, less than one year.


And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book

the liability initially at present value.


And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos

are different types of debt.


So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to

the public and then investors offer the,


to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do

the accounting for the bank loan.


So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for

issuing the debt, so


when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.

Next, we need to do the journal entry for


the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so

we're paying off our notes payable.


To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?

>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.

It's an annual payment, so


we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.

So at the end of that first year,


December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.

We make the same payment of 3,672, but


this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.

So, instead of paying back the principal


in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house

with a 30-year mortgage,


you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.

So our receiving cash,


KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,

which is now 3,331.


We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.

So, bonds payable, as we talked about a


little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or

effective interest rate or


yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond

with a 10% interest rate,


we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and

tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.


>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.

We'll have a face value or


future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,

to get the price of 10,000.


Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,

1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.


But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and

try to do the journal entry for


when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause

sign and try to do this journal entry.


Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!

Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.


Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.

So for accounts payable, we don't try


to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69

minutes of video about time value of


money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.

Then you make periodic interest and


principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and

then you pay back at maturity.


>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.

Then on December 31st,


we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,

you forgot to record the interest payable!


>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for

500 because we're paying $500 cash.


December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,

credit cash 10,000.


Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.

Let me show you.


So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which

is 5%, for three periods, three years.


The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.

So, how much principal are we paying?


It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.

That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.


And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.

So there's a rational explanation why


interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we

borrow from the bank for


the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.

We're going to debit interest expense for


500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.

And at this point,


the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.

So, the price or proceeds of the bond


is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.

And then the number of periods


to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran

theme song sort of redeemed it.


In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market

figure out the present value and


then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.

We have to do the present value of


the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.

So we bring up our function, PV.


We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.

So hopefully, it made a lot more sense


when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.

'Kay, so we're debiting interest


expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,

credit cash for $10,000 each.


>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.

And these are pretty much most of the


liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.

And then you may make adjustments based


on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.

So we're going to talk


first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,

to pay the company the present value


of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.

So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,


KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so

when we first borrow from the bank.


And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for

the two periodic interest payments, so


the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.

To get rid of the notes payable liability,


we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?

Wow, you are old.


>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so

we use the annual interest rate of 5% for


the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,

December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but

this time, the interest component is last.


It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal

in one lump sum at the end, we're paying


back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,

you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all


of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,

KP is receiving cash from the bank, so


we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.

We're going to debit interest expense


to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a

little bit at the beginning of the video,


these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or

yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.


That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,

we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.

>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?


[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or

future value of 10,000.


We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.

Or, if you're using Excel,


you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.

But then, as I said, you could also do


present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for

when the bond is issued on January 1,


2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.

Okay, so we're paying off the principal,


so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.

Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try

to figure out the present value of


paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of

money, I sure hope we will use


those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and

principal payments over the loan period


such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.

>> My favorite type of debt


are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,

we're going to pay $500 of interest.


The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!

>> Finally a legitimate question.


So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.

December 31, 2011,


we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.

Either one is okay just as long as


your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.

So here's where we get the payment number.


It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.

The present value is 10,000.


There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?

It's the difference between 3,672 and


500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.

And then we get to December 31, 2012,


which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why

interest is highest at the beginning and


then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for

the mortgage January 1st,


we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for

500 to represent the cost of


the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,

the mortgage is fully paid off, so


there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond

is what the company receives when they


issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods

to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.

In case [LAUGH] you're wondering


what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and

then are willing to give KP $10,000


of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of

the payment, so here we're looking for


the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.

We have a rate of 2.5% for


six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense

when you saw it the second time.


So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest

expense for 250 because this is


a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.

>> This seems very easy.


I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the

liabilities that we have been seeing so


far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based

on inter, interim cash payments, or


premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk

first about bank loans.


This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value

of the coupons and the principal.


So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,

KP incorporated is going to borrow


$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.

And I'm going to throw


up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so

the interest payment on December 31,


2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,

we debit notes payable 10,000,


so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.

>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank


just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for

the rate, three years, n is 3,


we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,

2010, the amount of principal


that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.

It's calculated as the beginning


balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying

back some principal every period so that


by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all

of your first payment goes to interest.


You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so

we debit cash 10,000.


And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense

to recognize the interest cost in


the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,

these are coupon bonds,


which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.

That's the rate r that we're going


to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,

20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.


And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?

[LAUGH] Let's move on.


Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.

We use an interest rate of 0.25,


which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,

you can just put in all of the elements.


Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do

present value where you put in the rate,


the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,

2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,

so we debit bonds payable to


reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.

Now that we have the basics of time value


of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of

paying something off two months later.


But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use

those calculations in this video.


Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period

such that by the end of the loan period,


you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt

are loans from my parents.


I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.

The $500 is 5% of 10,000.


We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.

So, remember we don't book


interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,

we make the same journal entry.


We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as

your debits equal your credits.


Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.

It's a present value calculation and


specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.

There's no future value and


it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and

500 of interest, which means


we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,

which is the end of the mortgage.


So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and

then goes down over time.


Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,

we get $10,000 cash coming in.


And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of

the interest during the year,


which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so

there are no more journal entries.


So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they

issue the bond to the public.


That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.

And so, we're going to go through


examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering

what we're talking about,


these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000

of proceeds to get that bond.


Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for

the present value.


We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for

six months, six semiannual periods.


We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.

So now let's go ahead and


do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is

a cost of interest, cost of doing


business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.

I thought bonds was going to be difficult,


so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so

far in the course, so


things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or

premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.

This is a kind of liability where you


borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.

So that's how much cash the company


raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow

$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.


The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw

up the pause sign and


see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,

2010 and December 31, 2011.


So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,

so that goes to zero.


We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank

just make the payment a nice round


number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,

we don't know the payment.


We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal

that we owe is $10,000.


Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning

balance times 5%, so


it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that

by the time we get to the end of the loan,


we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.

You pay a little bit down in principal.


As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.

And we credit mortgage payable,


a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in

the income statement this period,


341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,

which means that they're going to


require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going

to use to calculate present values.


That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.

And the bond price is going to


be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.

Okay, so the example we're going to


go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,

which is half of 5%.


The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.

Face value, 10,000.


Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,

the number of periods, and put in


both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.

So on this date we're receiving


cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to

reduce the liability by 10,000,


so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value

of money under our belt, we're going to


apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.

But we talk about long-term liabilities,


so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.

Those were 69 minutes of my life


that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,

you've fully paid back the principal.


There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.

I borrow principal, make no interest


payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.

We pay the same amount on December 31,


2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book

interest payable until we've


incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.

We debit interest expense and


we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.

Now we're going to look at accounting for


a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and

specifically it's an present


value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and

it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.


It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means

we're paying 3,172 of principal.


So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.

So coming in, the balance is 3,497.


The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.

Interest is always based on the balance


of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.

And then we're going to make


our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,

which needs to go in the income statement.


And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.

So that's what what goes on with


the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.

That's going to be the same as


the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through

examples and see how all of this works.


But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,

these are James Bond movies.


You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.

Where do they get that from?


Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.

We set the future value equal to zero.


We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.

We're not going to do anything with


the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and

do the journal entries.


So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing

business, goes onto the income statement.


And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,

so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so

things like accounts payable and interest


payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,

which we'll talk about later, but


you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you

borrow some principal up front, so


maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company

raises from issuing the bond.


Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.

The bank changes the firm


5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and

see if you can do the journal entry for


first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.

So, I'll put up the pause sign and


you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.

We debit interest expense because we had


another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round

number like $3,700?


>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.

We can use Excel or a calculator or


PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.

Then we're going to make


a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so

it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.


Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,

we've paid back all the principal


in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.

As you pay more and


more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,

a liability for what we owe back the bank.


Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,

341, and put a cash for 3,672.


Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to

require semiannual coupon payments.


So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.

That's what rate the, the investors are


willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to

be equal to the present value of


that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to

go through is on January 1st, 2010,


KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.

The number of periods is six.


A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.

Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in

both the payment and the face value.


And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving

cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.


We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,

so it makes the liability zero.


We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to

apply those to accounting for


various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,

so liabilities due beyond one year, now


we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life

that I will never get back again.


>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.

There's not necessarily that lump


sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest

payments, and make no principal payments.


Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,

2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've

incurred interest expense


without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and

we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for

a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present

value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.

It shows us the negative.


If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.

So if we're paying that much principal,


that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.

The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or


175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance

of principal at that point in time.


And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make

our three payments of 3,672,


which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.

And then we credit cash for


the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with

the accounting firm mortgage where you


have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as

the present value in a time value of


money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.

But the key thing to remember is


that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.

You can't teach bond accounting


without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?

Well, it's, they do a present value


calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.

We use the same semiannual interest rate,


number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with

the tenit, payment at this point and


we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.

So as we have done before, I've laid out


all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.

And then we credit cash for


250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.

>> Yeah, if only all bonds were


this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest

payable, taxes payable, wages payable.


Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but

you don't mark at the fair


value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so

maybe you borrow a $1,000.


You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.

Investors can then sell the bond


to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm

5% interest per year.


So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for

first borrowing from the bank.


Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and

you can try to think of what


those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had

another $500 of interest expense for


the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?

>> I'm sure the bank would be happy


to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or

PV table to try to solve it.


The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make

a payment on that day of 3,672.


Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.

Since we're paying a little bit less


interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal

in addition to annual interest.


>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and

more principal down over time,


the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.

Then at the end of 2010, December 31,


we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.

Last payment, 12/31/2012.


Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.

So there's going to be a payment of


cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are

willing to lend money to the company at.


We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of

that face value amount or


future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,

KP Incorporated issues a three-year


5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.

A three-year bond, but we double


the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.

Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,


calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.

And what Excel will do is value them for


you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.

We credit bonds payable,


liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.

We do one more coupon payment


of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for

various kinds of long-term liabilities,


like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now

we're going to book those liabilities at


the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.

>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time


value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump

sum payment of principal at the end.


And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.

Will we cover the accounting for


these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.

It's the same amount because at


that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense

without paying any cash.


So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.

The last journal entry that we need to


do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.

So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.

But in this case,


we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.

If you want to see it as positive,


you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,

that means that after the payment,


the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or

175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.

And what we're doing in each payment


is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,

which are split into interest and


principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for

the amount of the payment 3,672.


So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you

have this situation of equal payments and


the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of

money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is

that bonds have semiannual payments,


which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting

without having James Bond jokes.


Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value

calculation to get the bond price.


So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,

number of semiannual periods.


The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and

we have a $10,000 face value.


So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out

all of the payments across the timeline.


We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for

250 to represent the cash that pay for


the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were

this straightforward and easy.


Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.

Those are all very short-term liabilities.


We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair

value every period.


So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.

You make periodic interest


payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond

to other people freely until


the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.

So it's always helpful to look at


a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.

Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what

those journal entries would be.


'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for

the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy

to give you a nice, round number as


a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.

The payment comes up to be 3,672.


Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.

Now, that payment is going


towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less

interest with the same payment,


we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.

>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,

the interest portion of the payment drops,


the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,

we have to make our payment.


So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.

Why don't you give it a shot?


Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of

cash every six months plus payment of


the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.

We're going to have the coupon rate,


which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or

future value amount plus the present value


of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year

5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.


Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double

the number periods to get semiannual.


And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,

calculate the present value and


you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for

you together and


come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,

liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment

of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,

like bank debt, mortgages, leases,


and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at

the present value of future cash payments.


After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time

value of money calculations, not for


the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.

And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.


Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for

these type of loans?


>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at

that point, we still owe $10,000.


We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.

So there's no interest payable on the day


that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to

do is when we repay the principal and


pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,

2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000


from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,

we actually know the present value.


What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,

you put that in there, and we get 3,672.


So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,

the ending balance in our principal,


our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.

So we're making the same payment of 3,672,


which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment

is we're not only paying interest, but


we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and

principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.

So let's try it again with the 2011


payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and

the payments are partially for


interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.

The face value or par value is the amount


that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,

which means we need to do


semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.

Here's another one.


What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.

So remember we have to double


the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.

The payment is 250.


That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.

So that give us 8,623,


if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.

We get 10,000 when we issue


the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for

the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.

Unfortunately, they're not.


And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.

We have to repay somebody


within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.

So as a result, when you look at


liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest

payments on that $1,000 and


then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until

the maturity of the bond.


And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at

a timeline of payments to try to


figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.

So, on January 1st,


2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.

'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.

And then we credit cash for 10,500,


which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as

a payment, but if they would be


rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.

Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so


let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going

towards principal and interest.


So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,

we pay off more principal.


That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,

why does the interest change each year?


And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,

the principal portion increases.


Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.

So I'm going to throw up


the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?

Again, same entry, different numbers.


Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of

the face value of the bond at maturity,


so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,

which is stated in the bond agreement, and


that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value

of the stream of payments, that annuity.


>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.

Investors price the bond using


an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.

And then there's no payment because


we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and

you will also get 10,000.


So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and

come up with the same


bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.

Now let's look at the journal entry for


the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so

we debit interest expense for 250,


and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,

and bonds, a lot of bonds.


Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.

After we record those long-term


liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for

the first few minutes of the video, but


toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.

Corporate bonds are where a company


promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?

>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.

We pay 5% interest on that.


And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day

that we get the proceeds of this loan


because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and

pay that last interest


payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000

from a bank on a three-year mortgage.


The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.

What's missing is the payment because


we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.

So, coming back into the PowerPoint,


what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,

our mortgage payable,


will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,

which means that the principal


portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but

we're paying down principal.


As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.

So let me throw up the pas,


the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011

payment and here is the pause sign.


So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for

interest and partially for


principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount

that the bond is going to pay at maturity.


That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do

semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.

What is the favorite James Bond


movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double

the number of periods and


divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.

That's the $10,000 face value


times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,

if you'll allow me to round.


And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue

the bond on January 1st, 2010.


Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.

So we're going to do that for those


five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.

And in the next video, we will crank


up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody

within a couple of months.


Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at

liabilities on a balance sheet,


what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and

then you repay the $1,000


principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.

And there's a special case


called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to

figure out when we're


going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,

2010, we're going to receive cash,


$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so

we are debiting interest expense for


500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,

which is the total cash for paying.


Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be

rounding up, then they're cheating you.


They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so

let me pop out to Excel and


show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.

So first, you calculate the interest


portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.

That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,


so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?

And why is it highest in the first year?


No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.

Now that we've laid out the amortization


schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up

the pause sign again and


try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.

Debit mortgage payable to reduce


the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,

so at the end of its time period.


So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and

that's going to determine


the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.

>> But this sounds like it is going


to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using

an effective market interest rate of 5%,


which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because

we're just doing a face val,


face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.

So let me pop out to Excel and


show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same

bond price of 10,000.


>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for

the periodic coupon payments and


those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,

and then credit cash for the 10,250.


And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.

Let's get started.


So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term

liabilities, in some cases,


we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but

toward the end, you'll be seeing them.


Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company

promises to pay periodic cash flows,


which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.

We won't be working on accounting for


parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.

And then at maturity, December 31,


2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan

because we can in theory just turn around,


pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest

payment on December 31, 2012.


So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.

The bank charges KP 5% interest


per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because

we know the present value's $10,000.


That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and
show you how to do that.
So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,

what it's always helpful to look at


when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest
portion of the payment.
You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,

will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,
so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal

portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?
No wonder everyone hates banks!
>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.

As we pay down principal,


then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization
schedule, we're going to go through and
do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,

the pause sign and


have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and
try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.
So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.

So it's going to be the same entry,


different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce
the principal balance by 3,497.
Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for

principal so that by the end of the


payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.
So, the terminology that we're going to
use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.

That's also going to be represented as the


future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine
the coupon payment,
which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.

So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going
to be the most boring Bond video
since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond

movie of all time for accountants?


It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,
which means that KP is going to receive
proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and

divide the interest rate by 2.


So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,
face value future value.
So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value

times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,


so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and
show you all these calculations.
Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.

And then we do the same thing for


the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.
>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.
Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.

Every six months,


we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and
those five payments in the middle
are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those

five intermediate six-months periods.


Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.
And, of course, you could have
also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank

up the difficulty when we look at


discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.
So we're going to start our look
at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.

Those liabilities are booked


at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,
we continue to mark them to fair value.
But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,

what you're oftentimes seeing


is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.
Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000

principal at the end of the loan.


A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,
which we're going to call coupons,
plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case

called the zero-coupon bond,


where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for
parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're

going to get cash and


pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,
2012, we pay the last interest payment
plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,

$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.


And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,
pay it back immediately and
not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for

500 because that's a cost of


having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.
So I'll put up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.

Now, you could have also split


this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest
per year on the mortgage.
The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.

They're charging you too much.


This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.
That's how much we're getting now.
There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
we use the annual interest rate of 5% for
the rate, three years, n is 3,
we don't know the payment.
We can use Excel or a calculator or
PV table to try to solve it.
The payment comes up to be 3,672.
Easiest way to solve this is Excel, so
let me pop out to Excel and

show you how to do that.


So going into Excel,
we hit the little Function button.
We look for the payment function, PMT.
We put in the annual interest rate,which
is 5%, for three periods, three years.
The present value is 10,000.
There's no future value and
it's an ordinary annuity, so we hit OK.
It shows us the negative.
If you want to see it as positive,
you put that in there, and we get 3,672.
So, coming back into the PowerPoint,
what it's always helpful to look at
when accounting for a mortgage is
what's called an amortization schedule,
which tracks the principal and
interest payments over time.
So at the end of that first year,
December 31,
2010, the amount of principal
that we owe is $10,000.
Then we're going to make
a payment on that day of 3,672.
Now, that payment is going
towards principal and interest.
So first, you calculate the interest

portion of the payment.


You take the beginning balance, which is
10,000, times the 5% annual interest rate.
And so, we're owe in terms of interest for
the first year is $500.
So, how much principal are we paying?
It's the difference between 3,672 and
500 of interest, which means
we're paying 3,172 of principal.
So if we're paying that much principal,
that means that after the payment,
the ending balance in our principal,
our mortgage payable,
will be 6,828,
which is 10,000 minus 3,172.
Then at the end of 2011,
the beginning balance is what we
ended with last time, 6,828.
We make the same payment of 3,672, but
this time, the interest component is last.
It's calculated as the beginning
balance times 5%, so
it's 6,828 times 5%, which is 341.
Since we're paying a little bit less
interest with the same payment,
we pay off more principal.
That's calculated as 3,672 minus 341,

so that's 3,331.
And so,
since we're paying back that principal,
the balance in the mortgage principal
at the end of the year is 3,497.
That's 6,828 minus 3,331, gives you 3,497.
And then we get to December 31, 2012,
which is the end of the mortgage.
So coming in, the balance is 3,497.
The interest portion is 3,497 times 5% or
175.
So we're making the same payment of 3,672,
which means that the principal
portion is 3,497.
3,672 minus 175 and viola,
that's exactly how much principal we owe.
So after we make the last payment,
the principal balance is 0.
So, instead of paying back the principal
in one lump sum at the end, we're paying
back some principal every period so that
by the time we get to the end of the loan,
we've paid back all the principal
in addition to annual interest.
>> Wait,
why does the interest change each year?
And why is it highest in the first year?

No wonder everyone hates banks!


>> Now, now, now,
I used to work for a bank.
Some of my best friends are bankers.
Let's go easy on them.
So there's a rational explanation why
interest is highest at the beginning and
then goes down over time.
Interest is always based on the balance
of principal at that point in time.
And what we're doing in each payment
is we're not only paying interest, but
we're paying down principal.
As we pay down principal,
then the interest charge on that
principal is going to be lower.
This is a natural feature of a mortgage.
If you ever buy a house
with a 30-year mortgage,
you'll notice that [LAUGH] almost all
of your first payment goes to interest.
You pay a little bit down in principal.
As you pay more and
more principal down over time,
the interest portion of the payment drops,
the principal portion increases.
Now that we've laid out the amortization

schedule, we're going to go through and


do the journal entries so
we can take our amortization schedule and
represent it in a timeline.
So, on the day that we
borrow from the bank for
the mortgage January 1st,
we get $10,000 cash coming in.
And then we're going to make
our three payments of 3,672,
which are split into interest and
principal.
So let me throw up the pas,
the pause sign and
have you try to do the journal
entry on January 1, 2010,
which is when that mortgage is issued to
the company, so when KP borrows the money.
So our receiving cash,
KP is receiving cash from the bank, so
we debit cash 10,000.
And we credit mortgage payable,
a liability for what we owe back the bank.
Then at the end of 2010, December 31,
we have to make our payment.
So I'm going to throw up
the pause sign again and

try to make the journal for 12/31/2010.


So here, we're going to reduce the
principal balance in mortgage payable by
3,172, so
reduce the liability with a debit.
We're going to debit interest expense for
500 to represent the cost of
the interest during the year,
which needs to go in the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
the amount of the payment 3,672.
So let's try it again with the 2011
payment and here is the pause sign.
So it's going to be the same entry,
different amounts.
So on December 31, we're going to
debit mortgage payable again for
the reduction in principal,
which is now 3,331.
We're going to debit interest expense
to recognize the interest cost in
the income statement this period,
341, and put a cash for 3,672.
Last payment, 12/31/2012.
Why don't you give it a shot?
Again, same entry, different numbers.
Debit mortgage payable to reduce

the principal balance by 3,497.


Debit interest expense to recognize
the cost of the interest on
the income statement, 175, and
then credit cash for the 3,672.
And at this point,
the mortgage is fully paid off, so
there are no more journal entries.
So that's what what goes on with
the accounting firm mortgage where you
have this situation of equal payments and
the payments are partially for
interest and partially for
principal so that by the end of the
payment stream, you've paid off the loan.
Now we're going to look at bonds payable,
which is a very common way that companies
raise money to finance their operations.
So, bonds payable, as we talked about a
little bit at the beginning of the video,
these are coupon bonds,
which means that they're going to
require semiannual coupon payments.
So there's going to be a payment of
cash every six months plus payment of
the face value of the bond at maturity,
so at the end of its time period.

So, the terminology that we're going to


use with bonds are the following and
what I'm going to do in parentheses
is note how they would map
into our present value calculations.
So, the price or proceeds of the bond
is what the company receives when they
issue the bond to the public.
That's going to be the same as
the present value in a time value of
money calculation.
The face value or par value is the amount
that the bond is going to pay at maturity.
That's also going to be represented as the
future value when we do time value money
calculations and you can easily remember
because face value, future value, both FV.
The market interest rate or
effective interest rate or
yield-to maturity, those are all synonyms.
That's the rate r that we're going
to use to calculate present values.
That's what rate the, the investors are
willing to lend money to the company at.
We're going to have the coupon rate,
which is stated in the bond agreement, and
that's going to determine

the coupon payment,


which is the payment in our
present value calculations,
which equals the face value of
the bond times the coupon rate.
And then the number of periods
to maturity is going to be n.
And so, we're going to go through
examples and see how all of this works.
But the key thing to remember is
that bonds have semiannual payments,
which means we need to do
semiannual compounding.
So we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the rates by two when we
do present value calculations.
So, if it was a ten-year bond
with a 10% interest rate,
we would do 20 periods,
20 semiannual periods, at 5% per period.
And the bond price is going to
be equal to the present value of
that face value amount or
future value amount plus the present value
of the stream of payments, that annuity.
>> But this sounds like it is going

to be the most boring Bond video


since GoldenEye.
>> I actually thought A View
to a Kill was much worse than
GoldenEye although the cool Duran Duran
theme song sort of redeemed it.
In case [LAUGH] you're wondering
what we're talking about,
these are James Bond movies.
You can't teach bond accounting
without having James Bond jokes.
Here's another one.
What is the favorite James Bond
movie of all time for accountants?
It's this one, debit no.
>> Excuse me, I would appreciate it if
you stopped with the dumb bond jokes.
I am sick and
tired of always hearing dumb bond jokes.
>> Did you say dumb bond jokes?
[LAUGH] Let's move on.
Okay, so the example we're going to
go through is on January 1st, 2010,
KP Incorporated issues a three-year
5% coupon, $10,000 face value bond.
Investors price the bond using
an effective market interest rate of 5%,

which means that KP is going to receive


proceeds from the bond of $10,000.
So, basically KP specifies all the terms
of the bond, puts it out to the market.
The investors in the market
figure out the present value and
then are willing to give KP $10,000
of proceeds to get that bond.
Where do they get that from?
Well, it's, they do a present value
calculation to get the bond price.
So remember we have to double
the number of periods and
divide the interest rate by 2.
So the present value of
the face value part,
the 10,000, you calculate looking for
present value.
We'll have a face value or
future value of 10,000.
We use an interest rate of 0.25,
which is half of 5%.
The number of periods is six.
A three-year bond, but we double
the number periods to get semiannual.
And then there's no payment because
we're just doing a face val,

face value future value.


So you come up with
a present value of 8,623.
And I'll bring this up in Excel in
a little bit to show you all of this.
We have to do the present value of
the payment, so here we're looking for
the present value.
We set the future value equal to zero.
We use the same semiannual interest rate,
number of semiannual periods.
The payment is 250.
That's the $10,000 face value
times the semiannual rate of 2.5%,
so that's where we get 250 from.
If you use Excel, calculator or
PV table to solve, you wind up with 1,377.
So we add those two up, 8,623 plus 1,377,
to get the price of 10,000.
Or, if you're using Excel,
you can just put in all of the elements.
Face value, 10,000.
Payment, 250.
Six periods, 2, 2.5% to get the,
calculate the present value and
you will also get 10,000.
So let me pop out to Excel and

show you all these calculations.


Okay, so to price the bond,
there are two components.
There's the present value of
the $10,000 face value of the bond.
So we bring up our function, PV.
We have a rate of 2.5% for
six months, six semiannual periods.
We're not going to do anything with
the tenit, payment at this point and
we have a $10,000 face value.
So that give us 8,623,
if you'll allow me to round.
And then we do the same thing for
the coupon payment.
So, present value, we've got 0.025,
six semiannual periods,
$250 payment, no future value,
1,377.03, sum those up, $10,000.
But then, as I said, you could also do
present value where you put in the rate,
the number of periods, and put in
both the payment and the face value.
And what Excel will do is value them for
you together and
come up with the same
bond price of 10,000.

>> I have a strong feeling of deja vu.


Have we seen something like this before?
>> Yes, this is the exact example I
used at the end of the Time Value of
Money video.
So hopefully, it made a lot more sense
when you saw it the second time.
So now let's go ahead and
do the journal entries.
So as we have done before, I've laid out
all of the payments across the timeline.
We get 10,000 when we issue
the bond on January 1st, 2010.
Every six months,
we pay a 250 coupon payment.
The end, we make the last coupon
payment plus the principal.
So let me throw up the pause sign and
try to do the journal entry for
when the bond is issued on January 1,
2010.
So on this date we're receiving
cash of $10,000, so we debit cash.
We credit bonds payable,
liability of $10,000.
Now let's look at the journal entry for
the periodic coupon payments and

those five payments in the middle


are all identical journey entries, so
just try to do one of those and
it'll apply to all of them.
So here is the pause sign.
'Kay, so we're debiting interest
expense for 250 because this is
a cost of interest, cost of doing
business, goes onto the income statement.
And then we credit cash for
250 to represent the cash that pay for
the coupon.
So we're going to do that for those
five intermediate six-months periods.
Then the last entry we're going to
look at is December 31, 2012,
when we have to repay at maturity.
So let me one last time throw up the pause
sign and try to do this journal entry.
Okay, so we're paying off the principal,
so we debit bonds payable to
reduce the liability by 10,000,
so it makes the liability zero.
We do one more coupon payment
of interest expense, so
we debit interest expense for 250,
and then credit cash for the 10,250.

And, of course, you could have


also split this into two entries,
debit interest expense,
credit cash of 250 each.
Debit bonds payable,
credit cash for $10,000 each.
>> This seems very easy.
I thought bonds was going to be difficult,
so I am kind of disappointed.
>> Yeah, if only all bonds were
this straightforward and easy.
Unfortunately, they're not.
And in the next video, we will crank
up the difficulty when we look at
discount bonds, premium bonds and
retirement before maturity.
I'll see you then.
>> See you next video!
Hello, I'm Professor Bushee.
Welcome back.
Now that we have the basics of time value
of money under our belt, we're going to
apply those to accounting for
various kinds of long-term liabilities,
like bank debt, mortgages, leases,
and bonds, a lot of bonds.
Let's get started.

So we're going to start our look


at long-term liabilities by
contrasting them to current liabilities.
Current liabilities are anything due
within one year, less than one year.
And these are pretty much most of the
liabilities that we have been seeing so
far in the course, so
things like accounts payable and interest
payable, taxes payable, wages payable.
Those are all very short-term liabilities.
We have to repay somebody
within a couple of months.
Those liabilities are booked
at their nominal value.
In other words, how much money you owe.
We don't try to figure
out the present value.
So for accounts payable, we don't try
to figure out the present value of
paying something off two months later.
But we talk about long-term liabilities,
so liabilities due beyond one year, now
we're going to book those liabilities at
the present value of future cash payments.
After we record those long-term
liabilities, in some cases,

we continue to mark them to fair value.


But in most cases that we'll talk about,
they're recorded at something called
amortized cost, which is you book
the liability initially at present value.
And then you may make adjustments based
on inter, interim cash payments, or
premiums or discounts,
which we'll talk about later, but
you don't mark at the fair
value every period.
So as a result, when you look at
liabilities on a balance sheet,
what you're oftentimes seeing
is a mix of fair values and
then these amortized costs,
which are like old historical costs.
>> Now that you have made us watch 69
minutes of video about time value of
money, I sure hope we will use
those calculations in this video.
Those were 69 minutes of my life
that I will never get back again.
>> Oh yeah, we'll be doing time
value of money calculations, not for
the first few minutes of the video, but
toward the end, you'll be seeing them.

Don't worry.
The liabilities that we're
going to focus on for
most of the next two videos
are different types of debt.
So we're going to talk
first about bank loans.
This is a kind of liability where you
borrow some principal up front, so
maybe you borrow a $1,000.
You make periodic interest
payments on that $1,000 and
then you repay the $1,000
principal at the end of the loan.
A mortgage will be something where,
again, you borrow principal, so
you borrow, I guess we should
make it a million dollars.
Then you make periodic interest and
principal payments over the loan period
such that by the end of the loan period,
you've fully paid back the principal.
There's not necessarily that lump
sum payment of principal at the end.
And then we'll talk about corporate bonds.
Corporate bonds are where a company
promises to pay periodic cash flows,

which we're going to call coupons,


plus a lump sum at maturity,
which we are going to call the principal.
What the company does is offer these to
the public and then investors offer the,
to pay the company the present value
of the coupons and the principal.
So that's how much cash the company
raises from issuing the bond.
Investors can then sell the bond
to other people freely until
the maturity of the bond.
And there's a special case
called the zero-coupon bond,
where the coupon payment is zero.
So there's no periodic cash flows, but
you just pay back a lump sum at maturity.
So you borrow now and
then you pay back at maturity.
>> My favorite type of debt
are loans from my parents.
I borrow principal, make no interest
payments, and make no principal payments.
Will we cover the accounting for
these type of loans?
>> no.
We won't be working on accounting for

parent loans.
Those actually sound more like donated
capital than actual liabilities.
First, let's look at how we do
the accounting for the bank loan.
So in this example, on January 1st, 2010,
KP incorporated is going to borrow
$10,000 from a bank on a three-year loan.
The bank changes the firm
5% interest per year.
So it's always helpful to look at
a timeline of payments to try to
figure out when we're
going to get cash and
pay cash and
that'll help guide the journal entries.
So, on January 1st, 2010,
we're going to receive $10,000 cash.
Then on December 31st,
we're going to pay $500 of interest.
The $500 is 5% of 10,000.
We pay the same amount on December 31,
2011.
It's the same amount because at
that point, we still owe $10,000.
We pay 5% interest on that.
And then at maturity, December 31,

2012, we pay the last interest payment


plus the principal that we owe.
So first,
I want to do the journal entry for
issuing the debt, so
when we first borrow from the bank.
And I'm going to throw
up the pause sign and
see if you can do the journal entry for
first borrowing from the bank.
Okay.
So, on January 1st,
2010, we're going to receive cash,
$10,000, so we debit cash $10,000.
And we want to credit a liability for
what we owe the bank, so
we credit notes payable $10,000.
>> Wait,
you forgot to record the interest payable!
>> Finally a legitimate question.
So, remember we don't book
interest payable until we've
incurred interest expense
without paying any cash.
So there's no interest payable on the day
that we get the proceeds of this loan
because we can in theory just turn around,

pay it back immediately and


not owe any interest.
So, interest payable and interest expense
are only going to accrue over time.
Next, we need to do the journal entry for
the two periodic interest payments, so
the interest payment on December 31,
2010 and December 31, 2011.
So, I'll put up the pause sign and
you can try to think of what
those journal entries would be.
'Kay, so
we are debiting interest expense for
500 because that's a cost of
having the loan outstanding.
That goes on the income
statement as an expense.
Credit cash for
500 because we're paying $500 cash.
December 31, 2011,
we make the same journal entry.
We debit interest expense and
we credit cash.
The last journal entry that we need to
do is when we repay the principal and
pay that last interest
payment on December 31, 2012.

So I'll put up the pause sign and


try to do the journal entry that
we do on December 31, 2012.
' Kay, so
we're paying off our notes payable.
To get rid of the notes payable liability,
we debit notes payable 10,000,
so that goes to zero.
We debit interest expense because we had
another $500 of interest expense for
the year.
And then we credit cash for 10,500,
which is the total cash for paying.
Now, you could have also split
this into two journal entries.
Debit interest expense 500,
credit cash 500, and
then debit notes payable 10,000,
credit cash 10,000.
Either one is okay just as long as
your debits equal your credits.
Now we're going to look at accounting for
a mortgage.
So on January 1,
2010, KP Incorporated borrows $10,000
from a bank on a three-year mortgage.
The bank charges KP 5% interest

per year on the mortgage.


The required payment is $3,672 per year.
>> Do you know how long it takes to
write $3,672 in words on a check?
>> A check?
Wow, you are old.
>> Anyway, why doesn't the bank
just make the payment a nice round
number like $3,700?
>> I'm sure the bank would be happy
to give you a nice, round number as
a payment, but if they would be
rounding up, then they're cheating you.
They're charging you too much.
This 3,672 is not an arbitrary
number pulled out of thin air, but
it actually represents a payment
based on an annuity calculation.
Let me show you.
So here's where we get the payment number.
It's a present value calculation and
specifically it's an present
value of an annuity.
But in this case,
we actually know the present value.
What's missing is the payment because
we know the present value's $10,000.

That's how much we're getting now.


There's no future value.
There's no money that's going to
change hands at the end.
It's an annual payment, so
